Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off excess, then dip into the egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs. Ensure the chicken is fully covered.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.

BLT Assembly

  1. 4

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 5

    Slice the Tomato

    While the chicken is cooking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce by washing and drying the leaves.

  3. 6

    Assemble the BLT

    Once the chicken is cooked, layer lettuce, tomato slices, and crispy bacon on top of the chicken. Drizzle with lemon caper aioli.

Parmesan Herb Fries Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare the Fries

    Cut the russet potatoes into thin fries. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch and pat dry with a clean towel.

  2. 8

    Season the Fries

    In a large bowl, toss the fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, oregano, thyme, and grated parmesan cheese until evenly coated.

  3. 9

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
